Netflix comes to Sky Italia

Pay TV operator Sky Italia SRL made Netflix Inc. available on its home entertainment platform Sky Q, Digital TV Europe reported.

Subscribers of Sky Italia's Entertainment Plus package worth €15.39 per month will gain access to Netflix's standard tier, which offers simultaneous HD viewing on up to two screens. Those subscribed to the Sky Q Platinum offer will get Netflix's premium tier with simultaneous 4K/Ultra HD viewing on up to four screens.

A stand-alone monthly Netflix subscription costs €11.99 for the standard plan and €15.99 for the premium plan, according to the report.

The launch came on the heels of the streaming giant revealing plans to open an office in Italy, invest about €200 million in Italian films over the next two years, and co-produce content with broadcaster Mediaset SpA.

In September 2018, Sky Italia's parent entity Sky Ltd. bundled Netflix into a new package dubbed Ultimate on Demand for U.K. and Irish customers. Sky Deutschland GmbH followed months later by adding Netflix to its Sky Q offering in Germany and Austria.
